A famous IBM employee took her baby to an IBM conference and had to deal with a smart aleck

She's a mobile software engineer and one of the company's most
prolific master inventors. She has close to 400 patents and
patent applications under her belt as part of IBM's massive
patent-creation machine.

So on the last day of the IBM Interconnect conference, the
ghost day when most people have cleared out, DeLuca married her
two passions together. She loaded her 5-month-old daughter into a
baby carrier and went to the conference.

While she was there, a man in his late 50s approached her to
berate her for bringing her baby to a professional conference,
she told Business Insider. He told her that having her baby there
was a "security issue," reports fellow IBMer Anna Seacat, who was
so annoyed about the incident that she wrote a
LinkedIn post about it. (Both women reached out and shared
the story with me, too.)

DeLuca did some sleuthing and discovered that the man was an IBM
contract employee.
